Gilleleje NEW YORK, Oct. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The 1943 flight and rescue of over 7,000 Danish Jews is a unique testament to civic courage, civil society engagement, and humanity. It represents a light in a very dark time: an occasion where many Danes joined forces to help save their Jewish compatriots. It remains an important part of Denmark's national identity and continues to inspire in Denmark and abroad. However, it is also a complex story; not all Danes came to the rescue and around 500 Danish Jews were captured and deported to Theresienstadt.
Key Points:
- Throughout 2023, the Consulate General of Denmark in New York commemorates the WWII events that saw the flight and rescue of 95% of the Danish Jews, 80 years ago.
